title: Fabrication of a boron nitride-gold nanocluster composite and its versatile application for immunoassays.
abstract: A multifunctional boron nitride-gold nanocluster composite was fabricated using poly-diallyldimethylammonium chloride as a stabilizer and a linker. The as-fabricated composite could be used as a fluorescent or an electrochemical label for immunosensing in the sensitive detection of interleukin-6.
